(WND)—Joe Biden is running for re-election to the White House on his Bidenomics. That’s what he calls his economic policies. His critics prefer to call it Bidenflation. The actual numbers behind that agenda shows they are anything but positive for Americans.
In fact, rent has exploded by more than 20% under Biden’s practices, monthly mortgage payments are up by a shopping $696 and food and other basics are up by equal percentages.
In short, it’s costing American families thousands of dollars a year more, just to keep the same food on the table, drive the same type of car and live in the same type of home as when Biden was elected.
“I wouldn’t count on prices broadly declining,” explained Moody’s chief economist, Mark Zandi, in a report in the New York Post.
Some of the facts that Americans see in their monthly expenditures, even if Biden, living in the White House while maintaining a presidential residence in Wilmington, Delaware, and a nearby luxurious beach home, doesn’t.
Rent.com is reporting that the media monthly asking rent last month was $2,011. Just three years earlier, before Biden, it was $1,667.
The American Community Survey reveals that the average monthly mortgage in 2020 was $1,621. Now it’s $2,317, for a nearly $43% hike. In 2020 a new car averaged $41,152, now it’s $48,008. Gasoline? Was $2.14 as Biden was preparing to move into the White House, now it’s $3.35.
The Post reported, “President Joe Biden this week spun the latest inflation numbers as good news for Bidenomics — cheering that October’s Consumer Price Index climbed a slightly less-than-expected 3.2% from last year.”
But the reality for consumers isn’t the 3.2% rate announced in October, it’s the “blistering” 18.2% hike since Biden took office.
The report noted eggs are up 47%, coffee up from $4.52 to $6.18, staples overall were up 33% with white bread up from 50 cents to $2, and increases of 22% for chuck, bacon, sirloin and chicken.
The Post said, “Meanwhile, President Joe Biden has been pushing his Bidenomics agenda that has consistently claimed to ‘reduce the [government’s] deficit’ despite recently-released Treasury data showing the red ink has doubled over the past year, from about $1 trillion to $2 trillion (yes, with a ‘T’).”
The results are inevitable. CNBC reports as of October, 60% of adults said they are living “paycheck-to-paycheck.”
“Overall, 4 in 10 consumers consider themselves worse off relative to 2022,” the report said. “Even as credit card debt tops $1 trillion, almost all — or 96% — of shoppers said they expect to overspend this season, according to a separate TD Bank survey.”
Three in four Americans say they are stressed about finances, and households have been tapping into their savings just to pay monthly bills.
““While consumers have found a way to manage through inflation, it’s concerning that many plan to tap into savings, and even exceed their budgets, to finance their holiday purchases, which may leave them vulnerable to an unexpected emergency,” said Alia Dudum, LendingClub’s money expert.

Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
